I like a lot of Led Zep, but not a crazed fan by any means, saw them do their first LP in 69 at a 1000 seat club in Boston for 2 bucks, which I thought was great and still do, but as far as depth, singing, songwriting etc. The Cream were my band, I loved 'em and still do and still play their stuff. They had such a quirky English sound too, very original sounding band thanks in large part to Bruce's songwriting and singing along with Bakers great drumming and Clapton's playing. I don't think I've ever heard them play a bad song except for Lawdy Mama on Live Cream I and only then because it is the instrumental track from Strange Brew with Eric singing Lawdy Mama lyrics to it as an album filler.
